Aptasia eaters
I have tried all of the above at differrent times with varying levels of success.
Pepperments do work... sometimes.
I had three or four left in my display for the better part of two years.
They weren't bugging anybody, just minding their own buisness not spreading but oh no I had to go and attack them with the aptasia zapper!
That seemed to work but they were just regrouping for a massive counter attack! Just seemed to **** them off! I went from four to at least 104 in less than a month! I ordered a Copper Band from a LFS they ordered it in for me, it took a couple of weeks to arrive. I then watched it eat for a week and took it home fully aware of all the trial and tribulations that go along with this fish! It started eating aptasia the very next morning and in less that two weeks
I could not find a single one and I searched with a magnifying glass. Two and a half months later... No aptasia that I can see and he/ she was eating marine quisine and emerald entre out of my hand along with my tangs!
Maybe not a typical story with this fish but it has worked for me so far! (I say this as I tap on my own head for good luck)!
